As a person in the process of trying to get top surgery, reading Good Queer News helps me keep from spiraling or falling into the pit trap of impotent grief for all trans and queer people fighting just to get basic needs met. Positivity isn't a silly way to respond to strife or concern, it's an important pole to set your compass to. We're striving for joy, right? We have to know what it feels like along the way. Thank you.
Thank you!! I work in education so it's been a scary, destabilizing time. But I shared one of your newsletters with my colleagues and it reminded us why we're in this work, no matter what. We can be the good queer news with our students. Thank you for what you do!
Congratulations on being a Substack best seller. I can understand why. I also appreciate your positive perspective very much. However, you are a person -- you don't have to do it all the time.
Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
